The "on average" fallacy edit
This statement has no value:
"...on average each of its 993 fonts has been downloaded over 19 billion times, and that each person on Earth has, on average, downloaded each font at least two or three times."
In fact, probably only a tiny percentage of the world's population has ever downloaded a single font from the collection. It's like putting Bill Gates into a room with 10 people on SNAP and then concluding that "...on average the people in the room had a net worth of $1 billion dollars." It's statistical legerdemain.
